Micrel, Inc.
When the MOSFET is driven off, the slower rise occurs
because the MOSFET’s output capacitance recharges
through the load resistance (RC circuit). A lower load
resistance allows the output to rise faster. For the fastest
driver operation, choose the smallest power MOSFET
that will safely handle the desired voltage, current, and
safety margin. The smallest MOSFETs generally have
the lowest capacitance.
